( WELCOME BACK, TRAVELERS. )



There's nothing but the clatter of train tracks, and the odd feeling of almost floating.

When you wake, it's hard to tell exactly what it is that you're missing - only that you are. There are pieces that aren't quite right, even if you're not sure where those pieces would normally be. Pieces of what, exactly....? Well, if you had to put a word to it, it would be - yourself, probably. Or did you get something back recently?

The place you've found yourself in is strange, certainly. It's probably worth exploring a bit. Though it just as easily seems that the only form of welcome or explanation that you have, comes from nothing more than a slab of marble. It might've changed since the last time you saw it.

You might have changed since the last time you saw yourself too - perhaps with a new emblem on your clothes, or a portrait on your skin.

There's no need to fret that much though. You've already gone through the ordeal once, and you might be able to see results from it. Even so, it's best that you don't get too comfortable, because there is still the unshakeable feeling:

There's still much more ahead of you.

Case study?

[ There's nothing threatening about her tone or demeanor, but he may want to expand on that. ]

You know, the first human I get to know better. Your family, history, likes and dislikes, all that. Tell me anything that's essential to know about you as a human.

[ Androids generally don't bother getting deep into each others' histories or ideologies, and trying to analyze individual humans like they were specimens to be dissected was considered sacrilegious in his time, so he still has to learn how to learn about humans. ]

[ Hmm... ]

I'm fine with that. I don't think it's natural to unload my entire life story on you at once, so we'll take it bit by bit. Will you do the same in return?

[ That's the road to friendship.

She's going to friendship 9S somehow even if it kills her or it kills him. Or one of them gets killed. ]


At home, I'm called the Insect Pillar, for how I fight. [ That's the simplest explanation unless 9S wants to ask follow up question for Breaths and all of that. ] My family consisted of my parents and my older sister. I have a younger sister who's not related by blood.

[ He nods to her question. It's only fair that this info exchange goes both ways. ]

If you have a nickname based on your fighting style, you must be pretty renowned, huh? Are you actually some kind of big shot like all the athletes at the Games?

My position is more well-known than I am personally. Pillars are the strongest of the Demon Slayers.

[ At the very least, they've defeated the most demons. ]
decryptic: (that you feel the way i do)

[personal profile] decryptic 2020-01-26 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Yeah, he believes it. Scary women have so much power. ]

How did you get so strong? Was your family full of Demon Slayers too?

[ Strong... Her hands turn into fists under the cover of her haori. If only she could be stronger, perhaps she could do more. ]

My sister was one. Demon Slayers have to learn how to breathe a certain way to maximize their strength.

Huh.

[ Their breathing... Could it really make that much of a difference? ]

If it wouldn't be too much trouble, could I ask for a demonstration? I've never heard of special breathing for that kind of purpose.
wisterin: (022)

[personal profile] wisterin 2020-01-29 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ She smiles. ]

I'm breathing that way right now. To become a pillar, you have to breathe like that at all times.

[ But she slows her breathing down and demonstrates: max intake of oxygen and all that.

you watched the anime i'm not explaining shit in the brackets I LOVE YOU ]
decryptic: (have we been fighting in vain)

[personal profile] decryptic 2020-01-29 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[ listen i tried to avoid asking for a verbal explanation for that very reason I'M DOING MY BEST

Anyway 9S watches all this very carefully, but he wasn't installed with spiritual shounen series sensors, so he can't really a discern a difference other than that her breathing seems very zen. ]


Sooo... if I asked you to, say, flip a car over, would you be able to do it with this breathing?

[ There's a noticeable pause. He hit one of her weak points. ]

The Stone Pillar would be able to. I can move a boulder, but moving a car is a little above my capabilities.
